 SCHEDULE OF LONG TERM DEBT

Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement

The Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Revolving Credit, Term Loan and Security Agreement, dated May 8, 2020 (“Loan Agreement”), with PNC National Association (“PNC”), acting as agent and lender. The Loan Agreement provides the Company with the following credit facility with a maturity date of March 15, 2024: (a) up to $18,000,000 revolving credit (“revolving credit”) and (b) a term loan (“term loan”) of approximately $1,742,000, requiring monthly installments of $35,547. The maximum that the Company can borrow under the revolving credit is based on a percentage of eligible receivables (as defined) at any one time reduced by outstanding standby letters of credit and borrowing reductions that our lender may impose from time to time.

On May 4, 2021, the Company entered into an amendment to the Loan Agreement with its lender which provided the following, among other things:

In connection with the amendment, the Company paid its lender a fee of $15,000 which is being amortized over the remaining term of the Loan Agreement, as amended, as interest expense-financing fees.

On August 10, 2021, the Company entered into another amendment to the Loan Agreement with its lender which provided, among other things, the following:

In connection with the amendment, the Company paid its lender a fee of $15,000 which is being amortized over the remaining term of the Loan Agreement, as amended, as interest expense-financing fees.

Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, as amended, payment of annual rate of interest due on the revolving credit is at prime (3.25% at December 31, 2021) plus 2% or London InterBank Offer Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 3.00% and the term loan and the capital expenditure line at prime plus 2.50% or LIBOR plus 3.50%. Under the LIBOR option of interest payment, a LIBOR floor of 0.75% applies in the event that LIBOR falls below 0.75% at any point in time.

The Company may terminate its Loan Agreement, as amended upon 90 days’ prior written notice upon payment in full of our obligations under the Loan Agreement. The Company agreed to pay PNC 1.0% of the total financing had the Company paid off its obligations on or before May 7, 2021 and 0.5% of the total financing if the Company pays off its obligations after May 7, 2021 but prior to or on May 7, 2022. No early termination fee will apply if the Company pays off its obligations under the Loan Agreement after May 7, 2022.

At December 31, 2021, the borrowing availability under the Company’s revolving credit was approximately $8,692,000 based on our eligible receivables and includes a reduction in borrowing availability of approximately $3,020,000 from outstanding standby letters of credit.

The Company’s credit facility under its Loan Agreement, as amended, with PNC contains certain financial covenants, along with customary representations and warranties. A breach of any of these financial covenants, unless waived by PNC, could result in a default under the credit facility allowing our lender to immediately require the repayment of all outstanding debt under our credit facility and terminate all commitments to extend further credit. The Company’s Loan Agreement prohibits us from paying cash dividends on our Common Stock without prior approval from our lender. The Company met its financial covenant requirements in the first quarter of 2021. The Company’s FCCR calculation in the first quarter of 2021 included the add-back of approximately $5,318,000 in eligible expenses that were incurred and covered by the PPP Loan that the Company received in 2020 as permitted by the amendment dated May 4, 2021 to the Company’s Loan Agreement as discussed above. The Company did not meet its FCCR requirement in the second quarter of 2021. However, this FCCR non-compliance was waived by the Company’s lender pursuant to the amendment dated August 10, 2021 to the Company’s Loan Agreement as discussed above. The Company was not required to test its FCCR for the third quarter 2021 pursuant to the August 10, 2021 amendment to the Loan Agreement. The Company met its financial covenant requirements for the fourth quarter of 2021, with the exception of the FCCR requirement; however, this non-compliance was waived by the Company’s lender pursuant to an amendment to our Loan Agreement dated March 29, 2022 (see “Note 21 - Subsequent Events – Credit Facility” for a discussion of this waiver and additional provisions of this amendment).

PPP Loan

On April 14, 2020, the Company entered into a promissory note under the PPP with PNC, our credit facility lender, which had a balance of approximately $5,318,000 (the “PPP Loan”). The PPP was established under the CARES Act and is administered by the SBA. The CARES Act was subsequently amended by the Flexibility Act. Proceeds from the promissory note was used by the Company for eligible payroll costs, mortgage interest, rent and utility costs as permitted under the Flexibility Act. The annual interest rate on the PPP Loan is 1.0%

On October 5, 2020, the Company applied for forgiveness on repayment of the PPP Loan as permitted under the Flexibility Act. On July 1, 2021, the Company was notified by PNC that the entire balance of the PPP Loan of approximately $5,318,000, along with accrued interest of approximately $63,000 was forgiven by the SBA, effective June 15, 2021. Accordingly, the Company recorded the entire forgiven PPP Loan balance, along with accrued interest, totaling approximately $5,381,000 as “Gain on extinguishment of debt” on its Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended 2021.

The following table details the amount of the maturities of long-term debt maturing in future years at December 31, 2021 (excludes debt issuance costs of $112,000).
